Ikeja
Juliet was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in November. The surgeon at Ikeja Community Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for February. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,700, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $850 short. my mother has been in and out of Ikeja Community Hospital since November. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,700 is more than we can find. While we wait, Juliet struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Juliet won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $850 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $60 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $540 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $180 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Post-operative medication: $30 Thanks for being kind about this.
